Danny O'Keefe - Edge lyrics

O'Keefe The harlot hounded harlequin As he eyed her with mistrust I still call it love, he said You don't even call it lust They calmly talked it over And agreed to disagree He maintained her love was priceless She maintained her love was free She asked him, "Baby, would you like to come with me?" The money's just for the room, babe The love is free You need wings to get to heaven Oh, to hell, you just need balls It's a very rough trip There ain't no place to fall It's just like freeway traffic From the womb to the tomb For this short time together We need a little room And then she showed him what she thought he'd come to see The money's just for the room, babe The love is free The harlot hounded harlequin Till he realized at last That when you pay to play The game of love gets pretty fast They had a lot in common So they smiled and shared a smoke The harlot saw life is a trick The harlequin, a joke And then he showed her what she'd really come to be The money's just for the room, babe The love is free
